A wine to calm you down, a brew to make you float
A mix to pass the time, a shot to sink your boat
Another to make you happy, a double to make you brave
A fifth put in your hand, is your key to an early grave

Think your walking on air. But your falling so fast
You can't break it.
So sing the reapers song. To the
Monkey at the bar you can't shake it.

(Chs)
Hellwater - Get yourself a shot
It's the get that's gonna get you
Before you know your got.
Hellwater - The body starts to stink,
But before they close my coffin' the Devil brings me a drink of Hellwater.
Hellwater - Get your self a drink of Hellwater. Hellwater

A lie to make you happy, a solution to make you cool
The concoctions of intoxication,
So proud to make you it's fool.
It's time for the masquerade, you put your buzz on like a mask.
But you funeral brigade carries tomb stones sealed in a flask.

You think your walking on air, but your falling so fast you can't take it, so sing the Reapers praise to the monkey at the bar you can't shake it.
